Bible verses about "dragons" | BBE

¹⁵ See now the Great Beast, whom I made, even as I made you; he takes grass for food, like the ox. ¹⁶ His strength is in his body, and his force in the muscles of his stomach. ¹⁷ His tail is curving like a cedar; the muscles of his legs are joined together. ¹⁸ His bones are pipes of brass, his legs are like rods of iron. ¹⁹ He is the chief of the ways of God, made by him for his pleasure. ²⁰ He takes the produce of the mountains, where all the beasts of the field are at play.

²¹ His breath puts fire to coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth.

⁸ There went up a smoke from his nose, and a fire of destruction from his mouth: flames were lighted by it.

¹ And a great sign was seen in heaven: a A woman clothed with the sun, and with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. ² And she was with child; and she gave a cry, in the pains of childbirth. ³ And there was seen another sign in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns. ⁴ And his tail was pulling a third part of the stars of heaven down to the earth, and the dragon took his place before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when the birth had taken place he might put an end to her child. ⁵ And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who was to have rule over all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was taken up to God and to his high seat. ⁶ And the woman went in flight to the waste land, where she has a place made ready by God, so that there they may give her food a thousand, two hundred and sixty days. ⁷ And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going out to the fight with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels made war, ⁸ And they were overcome, and there was no more place for them in heaven. ⁹ And the great dragon was forced down, the old snake, who is named the Evil One and Satan, by whom all the earth is turned from the right way; he was forced down to the earth, and his angels were forced down with him. ¹⁰ And a great voice in heaven came to my ears, saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: because he who says evil against our brothers before our God day and night is forced down. ¹¹ And they overcame him through the blood of the Lamb and the word of their witness; and loving not their lives they freely gave themselves up to death. ¹² Be glad then, O heavens, and you who are in them. But there is trouble for the earth and the sea: because the Evil One has come down to you, being very angry, having the knowledge that he has but a short time. ¹³ And when the dragon saw that he was forced down to the earth, he made cruel attacks on the woman who gave birth to the male child. ¹⁴ And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, so that she might go in flight into the waste land, to her place, where she is given food for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the snake. ¹⁵ And the snake sent out of his mouth after the woman a river of water, so that she might be taken away by the stream. ¹⁶ And the earth gave help to the woman, and with open mouth took up the river which the dragon sent out of his mouth. ¹⁷ And the dragon was angry with the woman and went away to make war on the rest of her seed, who keep the orders of God, and the witness of Jesus:

¹ And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the great deep and a great chain in his hand. ² And he took the dragon, the old snake, which is the Evil One and Satan, and put chains on him for a thousand years, ³ And put him into the great deep, and it was shut and locked over him, so that he might put the nations in error no longer, till the thousand years were ended: after this he will be let loose for a little time.

¹ And he took his place on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads unholy names. ² And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power and his seat and great authority. ³ And I saw one of his heads as if it had been given a death-wound; and his death-wound was made well: and all the earth was wondering at the beast. ⁴ And they gave worship to the dragon, because he gave authority to the beast; and worshipping the beast, they said, Who is like the beast? and who is able to go to war with him? ⁵ And there was given to him a mouth to say words of pride against God; and there was given to him authority to go on for forty-two months. ⁶ And his mouth was open to say evil against God, and against his name and his Tent, even against those who are in heaven. ⁷ And it was given to him to make war on the saints and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and language and nation. ⁸ And all who are on the earth will give him worship, everyone whose name has not been from the first in the book of life of the Lamb who was put to death. ⁹ If any man has ears, let him give ear. ¹⁰ If any man sends others into prison, into prison he will go: if any man puts to death with the sword, with the sword will he be put to death. Here is the quiet strength and the faith of the saints. ¹¹ And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and his voice was like that of a dragon. ¹² And he makes use of all the authority of the first beast before his eyes. And he makes the earth and those who are in it give worship to the first beast, whose death-wound was made well. ¹³ And he does great signs, even making fire come down from heaven on the earth before the eyes of men. ¹⁴ And those who are on the earth are turned from the true way by him through the signs which he was given power to do before the beast; giving orders to those who are on the earth to make an image to the beast, who was wounded by the sword, and came to life. ¹⁵ And he had power to give breath to the image of the beast, so that words might come from the image of the beast, and that he might have all those who did not give worship to the image of the beast put to death. ¹⁶ And he gives to all, small and great, the poor and those who have wealth, the free and those who are not free, a mark on their right hand or on their brows; ¹⁷ So that no man might be able to do trade but he who has the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name. ¹⁸ Here is wisdom. He who has knowledge let him get the number of the beast; because it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty-six.

⁹ And the great dragon was forced down, the old snake, who is named the Evil One and Satan, by whom all the earth is turned from the right way; he was forced down to the earth, and his angels were forced down with him.

¹ In that day the Lord, with his great and strong and cruel sword, will send punishment on Leviathan, the quick-moving snake, and on Leviathan, the twisted snake; and he will put to death the dragon which is in the sea.

¹ And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the great deep and a great chain in his hand. ² And he took the dragon, the old snake, which is the Evil One and Satan, and put chains on him for a thousand years, ³ And put him into the great deep, and it was shut and locked over him, so that he might put the nations in error no longer, till the thousand years were ended: after this he will be let loose for a little time. ⁴ And I saw high seats, and they were seated on them, and the right of judging was given to them: and I saw the souls of those who were put to death for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and those who did not give worship to the beast, or to his image, and had not his mark on their brows or on their hands; and they were living and ruling with Christ a thousand years. ⁵ The rest of the dead did not come to life again till the thousand years were ended. This is the first coming back from the dead. ⁶ Happy and holy is he who has a part in this first coming: over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will be ruling with him a thousand years. ⁷ And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be let loose out of his prison, ⁸ And will go out to put in error the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to get them together to the war, the number of whom is like the sands of the sea. ⁹ And they went up over the face of the earth, and made a circle about the tents of the saints, and the well loved town: and fire came down out of heaven for their destruction. ¹⁰ And the Evil One who put them in error was sent down into the sea of ever-burning fire, where the beast and the false prophet are, and their punishment will go on day and night for ever and ever. ¹¹ And I saw a great white seat, and him who was seated on it, before whose face the earth and the heaven went in flight; and there was no place for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, great and small, taking their places before the high seat; and the books were open, and another book was open, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged by the things which were in the books, even by their works. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Hell gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged every man by his works. ¹⁴ And death and Hell were put into the sea of fire. This is the second death, even the sea of fire. ¹⁵ And if anyone's name was not in the book of life, he went down into the sea of fire.

⁷ And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be let loose out of his prison,
